- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_LEN:
Size of DRAM reserved for malloc() use.
+- CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN
+ Size of the malloc() pool for use before relocation. If
+ this is defined, then a very simple malloc() implementation
+ will become available before relocation. The address is just
+ below the global data, and the stack is moved down to make
+ space.
+
+ This feature allocates regions with increasing addresses
+ within the region. calloc() is supported, but realloc()
+ is not available. free() is supported but does nothing.
+ The memory will be freed (or in fact just forgotton) when
+ U-Boot relocates itself.
+
- CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN:
Normally compressed uImages are limited to an
uncompressed size of 8 MBytes. If this is not enough,
